Publisher Info
Dorrance Publishing. InquiryIn his autobiography, Mathis Szykowski describes his childhood in France. As the son of Jewish immigrants from Poland and Romania, Szykowski strives to assimilate into French culture. World War II and the Occupation of France reveal that his aspirations were illusory. He survives a difficult adolescence, only to end it as an orphan. nnAfter the war, he is able to emigrate to the U.S.A. Szykowski serves in the U.S. Army in Japan, lives in New York City and, finally, resumes his education. His survival under dire circumstances depends on the help of people willing to risk their lives for others.
